Anger is not an aphrodisiac nor is it helpful in getting more of what you want. Couples in conflict often focus too much energy on changing their partner. The problem is that each partner does not have direct control over the other. The way out is of this dilemma is to learn how to not get so upset over what you dislike in your partner. I teach each partner how to improve their relationship by first modifying their own behavior. By having better control over your emotional and behavioral reactions you can more constructively communicate, negotiate and influence your partner. I teach you how to get your message across and positively influence your partner so that you can enjoy the results!

How to Get the Love You Want
Take a minute to think about what you expect from a loving relationship with a partner. Does your list contain any of the following common expectations?
o Healing past wounds
o Meeting all of your current emotional needs
o Fulfilling fantasies and idealizations of how life should be
o Making up for other less rewarding aspects of life / making your life "whole"
Any one of these expectations alone can be a very tall order! Not surprisingly, relationships often buckle under these kinds of pressures. So, what to do? Learn to take care of and give to the relationship; in other words, give instead of trying to get the love you want.

Feeling strong and secure in your primary relationship can have a positive impact on all areas of your life. Whether your are interested in pre-marital, marital or general couples counseling, I can help you improve your communication and overall satisfaction in your relationship. I use a model of counseling called Eco-Systemic Structural Family Therapy (ESFT) which emphasizes the idea that relationships patterns repeat themselves. I will help you and your partner identify these patterns, explore one another's perspectives and create new, healthier patterns that allow for happy and sustainable relationships.

A relationship requires work but it doesn't have to feel painful and exhausting along the way. Couples therapy focuses on helping partners form positive and meaningful interactions, develop relational goals, and build on communication skills in order to feel heard, understood, and deeply loved by your significant other. I use Emotion Focused Therapy to help partners label and understand each other's underlying feelings and to develop more affect and compassion for one another. I also offer couples yoga to work on intimacy and trust issues.

I believe that couples therapy can offer significant benefits to your relationship, not just in stormy weather but in times of calm waters. Having a place to safely explore your relationship, interactional patterns, and the universal "dance" that we can all enter into in our relationships acts as wise insurance for having a lasting and satisfying relationship. Couples therapy will iilluminate the underlying emotions and needs that are often disguised or lost in relationship conflict, and you and your partner will learn how to create a more secure and satisfying emotional experience together where you can interrupt the cycle before it escalates.

Sometimes it's difficult to be in a relationship. No matter how much you love someone, there can be challenges and stress points within the relationship that create conflict. Couples seek counseling for many different reasons. Negative communication, infidelity and coping through a difficult life change are some reasons why couples seek counseling. Couples who want to learn how to communicate better and re-establish intimacy also seek therapy. I specialize in helping couples learn more effective ways of communicating with one another to increase intimacy, decrease relationship tension and meet other goals important to the relationship.
